Actually, I'm going to have to take that back.  I don't grok enough of
dpkg's internals to do something major like this right now. 
Specifically the case I had trouble with is when we need to modify other
package lists when installing a package.

For someone who really knew dpkg internals well though, it probably
wouldn't be too hard to implement, starting from my SHA1 sums patch.

I hope the SHA1 patch can go in as-is.
